2025! There are 365 days lying in wait like blank pages. What will your story be? Will you write about the Ultimate Adventure of a lifetime?
Many women choose a word for the year to guide and align their intentions and dreams. Why not choose a destination too?
Resolutions don’t have to be daunting; they can revolve around fun! Skip the scale and kale promises and choose a rational resolution, one that doesn’t require a groan or a quick expiry date because your interest has petered out.
Why not sit down and create a list of your travel goals? January 1st is all about a fresh new start, so begin the day ceremoniously with a list of new experiences and places and flavours you want to try. Whether you register for a half marathon or a watercolour class, it’s all about anticipation, commitment and preparation. Registering for a race or art lessons or booking a trip or ultimate adventure unlocks the unstoppable = motivation!
This is what happens when you book a trip with Wild Women…
Celebration! A natural countdown begins until your departure. What country are you going to? Vietnam? Why not visit your local Vietnamese restaurant to commemorate it with spring rolls and Bún Tôm Nướng Sả (grilled lemongrass shrimp on vermicelli noodles).
Forging new friendships: You will be sent a private Facebook link so you can virtually get to know the Wild Women you will be travelling with on your trip. In your private group, you can start hatching plans for pre-trip meet-ups and post-trip travel or share your training program.
Gear shopping! Maybe you need a new day pack or trail runners. Knowing you have a travel date on the horizon, it’s time to get shopping and acquainted with your gear.
A new routine: Whether it’s making a date with the Stairmaster three times a week, walking your dog a little further each day or increasing your confidence with weekly horse riding lessons, booking a trip helps create focus.
Your travel goals can be specific to your destination or totally open-ended.
What would push you outside your comfort zone?
Maybe you haven’t shared space with a roomie since summer camp or college—open yourself to possibility. You may meet your very best friend and future true-blue travel companion.
Join in on the conversation…
Be your best, natural self and mingle on your group’s private Facebook page or Wild Women’s Community Facebook Group. Share what you’re excited about, can’t wait to see, and what you’re nervous about—ask all the questions. You are among like-minded women and soon-to-be friends!
Learn!
Maybe you’ll be inspired to learn a new language. Search for memoirs or books set in the country you’re traveling to. Google documentaries (David Attenborough has never steered anyone wrong) or foodie-based travel series.
Start a travel book club!
Explore the world even further and keep the momentum going with your casual book club!
So, about that blank page. We’re happy to help you fill it! As the New Year’s Eve Ball descends at Times Square, it’s time to get serious. The ball is in your court. Where will you go in 2025? We have a few ideas up our polar fleece sleeve and have created a trip countdown in the theme of the brand new spectacular year!
10 Wildlife Bonanza: Tanzania Safari
The greatest scavenger hunt on Earth can be found on our Tanzania Safari. It’s a birding nirvana from the striking lilac-breasted rollers to the elegant, great-crowned cranes. The Serengeti never sleeps, but you will, quite soundly, in the luxury of the all-women-run Dunia Camp.
9 Foodie La La Land: Croatia Active Adventure
On our Croatia Active Adventure– enjoy everything from the famed Samoborska kremšnita (a traditional custard cream cake sandwiched between two flaky pastry layers) to customary plates of sardines, prosciutto, salami, capers, olives and cheese. Enjoy just-hooked fish, stewed fall-off-the-bone lamb and veal baked in cauldrons covered in hot ash and local Plavac Mali wines.
8. Reboot & Reset Your Life: Bali Explorer
Our Bail Explorer itinerary revolves around wellness, a hyper-local menu and self-care. Relax your mind with therapeutic spa treatments, a Balinese massage, scenic yoga classes and traditional dance lessons.
7. Hiking Holy Grail: Switzerland Hiking Adventure
Expect panorama-packed hikes in the Bernese Alps—-many of them begin with a gondola ride to the trailhead! Marmots, spotted woodpeckers, alpine wildflowers, and the ever-present tinkling cowbells will be as rock solid as your memory of hiking alongside the mighty Matterhorn on our Switzerland Hiking Adventure.
6. Time to Think: Camino de Santiago Hiking Adventure
The Camino de Santiago is a pilgrimage designed to stretch both your mind and hamstrings. “The Way” will stir all your senses as you follow the historic route on the final 67 miles (108km) through Spain. It’s easy to find a comfortable pace that encourages reflection over leisurely café con leches in the morning sun and restorative stays at welcoming rural hotels en route.
5. Out of This World Everything: Ultimate Egypt
Seeing the pyramids, the Giza plateau and the Nile for the first time brings so many childhood projects and movies to life. In 2025 the Grand Egyptian Museum will finally be fully open—be one of the first to take in the collection of over 100,000 artifacts. On our Ultimate Egypt Adventure, we take you there!
4. Knock-your-wool-socks-off Nature: Patagonia Hiking Adventure
This is the ultimate adventure and our wildest Wild Women trip. On our Patagonia Hiking Adventure, you’ll experience all the elements of Torres del Paine National Park along the famed W-trek hut-to-hut hiking route. The teal lakes, glaciers and granite peaks are an embrace like no other.
3. Polar Plunge Headquarters: Falklands South Georgia and Antarctica Explorers and Kings
Few places are as untouched, pure and silent as Antarctica. It’s a land of extremes, isolation and transformative moments. There’s not a lot of silence when Wild Women take the plunge and scream into the super refreshing Antarctic waters!
2. Empowerment and Cultural Immersion: Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
Our Inca Trail Trek is a feel-good two-fold. Surprise yourself with what you can accomplish and support the resilient local women porters who help our Wild Women crew make their dreams come true in the Sacred Valley.
1. Heart’s Desire: What destination makes your heart pound faster?
There’s no right answer or new year’s resolution that fits all. Ask yourself, what do you want to see? Experience? Do you want to see blue-footed boobies? Do you want to glamp in the desert or stay at a traditional Japanese inn? Do you want to meet the women who still dive for pearls in Japan? Do you want to try tandem kayaking or white-water rafting, an ultimate adventure? Do you want to ride in the rhythm of a Peruvian Paso horse or a camel? Yes, we ask a lot of questions:)
Whatever you’re seeking in 2025, Wild Women Expeditions is here to make it happen. Our resolution is to bring your dreams to life and keep the adventure spirit alive long after the trip ends—so your countdown never ends!
